A singer and songwriter gifted with a strong, clear voice, Jillian Edwards was born in Dallas, Texas in 1989. Edwards developed a passion for music in her teens, and began her performing career when she was a student at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, singing at local coffeehouses and landing a spot opening for the Civil Wars shortly before the duo's career took off. In 2009, Edwards took her career to the next level by recording a six-song EP, Galaxies and Such, which was soon followed by the eight-song Songbird, both of which she released herself.

In 2014 pianist and composer Peter Edwards released 'Safe and Sound', his critically acclaimed debut album that revealed a talent for writing colourful soundscapes, intricate rhythms and dexterous grooves. 'A Matter of Instinct', features eight original compositions written for his trio with Max Luthert on bass and Moses Boyd on drums.

The music has the unforced feel of (Chicago's) blues of the late 30s and 40s without once sounding anachronistic. The five musicians (playing as a quintet) share the vocal duties, providing striking contrasts…All the material is original in the true sense, not just old blues with reshuffled lyrics and new titles, and the quintet interprets it with real conviction. Horton is featured on seven of the seventeen numbers. ~ Manchester, England Evening News
